Today’s Daf Yomi page, Yevamot 9, kicks things off with a desperately needed reminder: Even those who hold the highest office in the land must be held accountable. Garrett M. Graff, the author of Watergate: A New History joins us to shed new light on the ultimate story of power and those who abuse it, and tell us why the real story of Watergate is so much stranger than the one we think we know. What urgently needed modern lessons might we learn from a decades-old political scandal? Listen and find out.
